Don't Allow YouTube to Demonetize Small Channels!

YouTube, has decided to demonetize small YouTube channels based on view time and subscribers. This is truly unfair as many people rely on this small amount of extra income. This is also the only funding many small YouTuber's get to create their content. In the passage quoted here "A big part of that effort will be strengthening our requirements for monetization so spammers, impersonators, and other bad actors can’t hurt our ecosystem or take advantage of you, while continuing to reward those who make our platform great." they say they will still reward those who make YouTube great. Yet they still are putting unreasonable requirements to join or stay in the program with only a thirty day notice. Even my channel Wartime Archery will be affected, I have reached over one thousand subscribers, but I do not have enough watch hours to stay in the YouTube Partner program. Even though i follow YouTube guidelines and do make the platform better. The "YouTube money" is my only funding I use to create my content. As many of you know, running a channel is not cheap. Sign this petition to get YouTube to still allow rule following small YouTuber's to keep their place in the Partner Program!
